Approximate fee for shipping a guitar via Borderlinx

[hidhir]

Hi guys,

Anyone know the approximate shipping fees of shipping a guitar from the US using borderlinx?

I found an old RG550 which i really want but the seller doesn't ship outside US. So I'm planning on using borderlinx.

Any other suggestions would help too! Thank in advance!

I think you can try to do an estimate on the online calculator on Borderlinx. If I remembered correctly, it ended up being around $200USD the last I checked pre GST.

You can explore using COMMGateway as well

For big bulky items like guitars, it will be very expensive regardless of the amount of your guitar.

Actually I wanted to ship in a JP100D from MF but decided not to, followed the specifications of the amazon dimensions and weight + said music instrument, shipping came up to about 130 USD Which isn't too bad tbh

No, that billing is by amazon not from borderlinx.

antishred, you shipped guitars via borderlinx before?

 

[antishred]

Yes, i was charged equivalent to 412sgd. I almost fainted in shock.

Why not just VPOST?

vpost should be slightly more expensive than borderlinx. if anyone knows of a service cheaper than borderlinx, do post here!
